Hello everyone! First beauty post in a while but I thought I’d share my thoughts on the beauty subscription (essentially) company, Beauty Pie, which I signed up to last year. I had heard of it but had largely ignored it until then. I am not sure why I did sign up now I think […]
Let’s talk about marble…
All bloggers love a bit of Marble, right? There’s something elegant, clean and timeless about a marble background and I know that when I get round to designing my own kitchen, I will definitely have many marble surfaces. Until then – I am stuck with using some pretty vinyl on some foam board as a […]
Welcome 2019 & Sharing my yearly Colourpop Haul
Happy New Year Everyone! I can’t believe it’s 2019 already – last year has flown by and it was a relatively quiet one for us in terms of nothing dramatic happening – that’s not a bad thing is it? I am a resolutions fan, and this year they roughly go like this: 1. Spend […]
Home Chat: Stairways and Steps!
I guess I have been thinking a lot about my dream home and what it would look like, and I get the feeling that in the future we will be renovating our own place. That is a few years away but there’s no harm at perusing the absolutely dreamy homes that are in Pinterest right?! […]
Fenty Beauty Stunna Lip Paint in Uncuffed – Why you can’t trust swatches sometimes
I rarely go to a make up counter to browse any more. I don’t have time, I don’t like being harassed, I just generally like to buy online (from Korea!) or I can be tempted by the occasional beauty product I see and one of those was the Fenty Stunna Lip Paint in Uncuffed. I […]
Buying a brand new bed!
I recently did some bed shopping – not something you do very often right? See, we have decided to put our two kids in the same room so we were doing some bunk bed shopping, sizing up different options and materials (beds are something you want to keep for quite a few years) so […]
Red Carpet Nails Colour Dip Mixing Kit – Review
When it comes to nails, I keep mine fairly short and tidy, although I won’t say no to a bit of colour on special occasions. I had acrylic nails done recently and they were quite damaging (REALLY DAMAGING) and it took a long time for them to get back to regular strength. It’s made me […]
Designing a dream kitchen!
So a little while ago, my mum was doing some home renovations and I pretty much (with little experience) ended up planning her entire kitchen design for her! Her kitchen is medium sized and a very practical space (she loves to cook) and I amazed myself by how much I enjoyed researching and designing a […]
Let’s talk about Teeth!
Ok, so be honest. How well are you looking after your teeth? Sure, you brush twice a day, but do you use the right toothpaste, the best toothbrush, floss and do you actively avoid sugary drinks and food which are notoriously bad for your teeth? I admit, when I am busy and stressed I don’t […]
Zerowater Jug Review
Happy Monday! It’s been a while my friends, but we have been under a fog of life, I am hoping to pick up on blogging again. I was sent a Zerowater water purifying jug (12 cup version £39.99 – other sizes are available) to try about 7 weeks ago. We normally use a Brita water […]
Red Carpet Manicure Gel Polish Pro Kit Review
I always look at the mums on the school yard with polished nails with envy – how do they have the time to do that? How do their manicures look so perfect? I seldom have time to do my nails they chips super fast (I mean, within a day) so I don’t bother. I […]
Summer Holidays Toy Fun with Strictly Briks
A while ago we were sent some sets from Strictly Briks to play with. The company makes Lego compatible pieces which open up different ways to play with bricks. They specials it base plates and pieces so you can build towers, they also have letters and numbers you can use on the plates as well […]
Belle Azul! The Spanish Brand You Should Try!
It’s always nice to try out some new skincare products, especially when there’s or preconceived ideas! Belle Azul is a brand from Barcelona and I was sent a few of the products (of my choice) to try. Their range is quite interesting as it doesn’t follow a set formula (of say, cleansers, toners, moisturisers). […]
My current 5 minute face!
Ok so at the time of writing it is absolutely boiling in the UK – unbearably so (hey, its tradition to moan about the heat when it’s here and complain when it isn’t) so my make up routine is really at a near standstill. It feels uncomfortable and melts off too quickly although – I […]
I found an awesome deodorant: Deovert Aromaspray
I have written before about how I have completely ditched deodorants that contain aluminium for health reasons. On a day to day basis, I use Weleda Deodorants and some natural roll ons but I have to tell you that many of these work differently to regular deodorant. For one thing, they don’t block up your […]
6 Things I tried from Filorga! Skincare Review!
A few months ago I had the pleasure of going along to my local M&S to be introduced to the Filorga brand (where the range is stocked) and I had a few products recommended to me which I have been using for a while. So now I’m ready to review for you! Filorga was founded […]
Competition for Stationery Geeks! StickerYou.Com Review
Anyone who has read this blog knows that I LOVE STATIONERY. I have a huge collection of notebooks, pens, glue sticks – so many glue sticks. And of course I love STICKERS. When a company called Sticker You got in touch with me to ask if I’d like to pick some products to review, I […]
Stuff I Almost Lost: BEGLOW TIA ALL-IN-ONE SONIC SKIN CARE SYSTEM Review!
I am quite a fan of electrical beauty devices, I have certainly tried quite a few, but the ones that get the most use are usually cleansers. I currently have a Clarisonic (I don’t tend to use much), a Foreo (I use quite a lot as it’s gentle) and now, I have this nifty device […]
Fenty Beauty Summer Daze Mini Haul and Review
I must admit, I haven’t tried lots from the Fenty Beauty range although I am rather taken by what I have tried – at least it tries to be fun and colourful, you know? Fun was the first thought I had when I saw Rihanna’s 10 minute guide to make up over on Vogue, (I […]
Review: Glossier Lash Slick – Is it any good? BONUS: Glossier Lip Gloss.
I can’t seem quit Glossier, like I can’t seem to quit bacon. I know it’s no good for me, I am trying to stop eating meat in general but then my ma, who is the worse at constantly trying to entice me and over feed me comes along with a perfectly fried piece of bacon […]
